EX6100 Access Point Setup
I had to factory reset my access point/extender. I'm trying to perform a new setup, for which a part is to create a new account. I can successfully access mywifiext.net, get to the page to enter my information, however when I click next it recycles back to the "New Extender Setup" page. I've tried it on a variety of browsers with the same experience.

UPDATE:
Now when I click "next" nothing happens. Hate having to pay $50 for support for a setup issue.

Thank you for your help, Dexter. The troubleshooting was extensive, and the root cause seemed to be an issue with my router assiging a different IP address to the extender. Also, registration of the extender with the router was not timely as internet speeds were a crawl, causing webpages to time out.
We ended up configuring the device as an extender and not an access point. The good news is that all is presently working as expected.
